Today on eMusic’s Best of 2007: Numbers 20 - 11 in our User Poll (UK Users, yours is here) and an interview with another 2007 Innovator: Apparat. “My dad was in a band,” he tells Andy Battaglia, “which was a funny thing in East Germany because you were being watched and weren’t allowed to play everything. I didn’t figure that out when I was young, but my dad told me later that they got in trouble for playing a Beatles song or something like that. I went to my dad’s gigs as a kid and was always sitting on the drum kit, so I learned how to play drums. Then techno came and I was like, ‘Hmm, why do I need drums?’”

    I’ve been trying to figure out what’s missing from all this, and it’s YOUR list. And everyone else’s. The editorial list is some kind of consensus thingy, and might bear little resemblance to any individual list.

    Since it’s never too late to make a list, I’d really truly love to see a top ten list for each of the editors individually. A lot of publications do it. Heck, the employees at Amoeba Records in LA, SF and Berkeley do it. So I invite you to step out from behind the wall of consensus, and have EACH of you tell us what you think.

    Or is this somewhere already, and I’m as dense as almost everyone tells me I am?
